His hero was a juvenile rowdy, who was sitting in one chamber with the main hero. For a short plot, a shaved naked young man was very necessary. The actors refused to shave for the sake of such a small role, and the only one whom the cheerful senior could persuade, or force his own son.
Being a student, Sergey Bodrov tried himself in the filming of the tape "Caucasian captive", where it got completely by chance: his father took his son to Dagestan to take pictures.
